  • Unique Stay!

    5/5

    This was a fun and unique place to stay in the area! The container home is clean and tidy, with plenty of natural light. The location is walkable to restaurants, coffee shops, and a wine tasting room. It was a treat to stay at such a nice place with our fur baby!

    5/5

    My 3 sisters & I had a wonderful stay in the container home! Clean comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed & more. Although we did not cook the kitchen was also well equipped. Also, we felt very safe everyone we encountered was friendly...

    5/5

    We thoroughly enjoyed the container home. Everything was wonderful. We went to Biltmore one day and skiing at Sugar Mountain the next day. Perfect location. Felt very safe and comfortably. Enjoyed being able to walk next door to Hillmans brewery for delicious food. Thank you for sharing your beautiful/ fun home. We will definitely be back.

  • Container Stay

    5/5

    Originally, we liked the novelty of staying in a container home; practically, we loved our stay and enjoyed it beyond what we expected. The proximity to local breweries and area attractions was fantastic. My husband and I, along with our kids (and the dog) loved the space, which was bright and clean.
